High-Speed Flash Memory / Hybrid Workflows

Listen NOW…

Bob Schmidt, VP Sales Hoodman USA joins host Scott Sheppard to discuss high-speed flash memory options for your digital camera including their line of RAW UDMA memory cards. Bob clarifies the different types of cards available today and the benefits they offer your digital workflow. Key considerations include not only storage capacity but also reliability, speed, and lifespan of the cards.

Bob explains that demanding shoots require cards that can perform consistently upon image capture. UDMA cards offer a new image transfer protocol that is faster and much more compatible with the newer and higher end digital SLR cameras. Hear how choosing the right card in a digital workflow is as important as choosing the right film type and speed in a traditional film/analog workflow.

Damaso Reyes, Photographer/Photojournalist, joins Inside Digital Photo to discuss some tips about managing a hybrid – film & digital – workflow. As a photojournalist, Damaso spends a lot of time shooting on location most recently working on a photo documentary project called “The Europeans” where he explores the recent changes in Europe and how it effects it’s people.

Damaso prefers to shoot film at this point since much of his story work and images are best portrayed in black and white. Damaso explains his workflow and preferred gear for this project which includes capturing the images consistently with a Leica film camera. He then scans the film negatives at a high-resolution which automatically creates a backup and provides him the flexibility of a digital file which he can adjust in Photoshop and also output the final images at a larger size digitally.

Hear details of his practical approach to managing the intricacies of a true hybrid workflow.
